Automatic generation of Wikipedia-like articles with Perplexity Pages
Perplexity Pages seems to work best with predetermined structures rather than single prompts. Unlike traditional AI tools, Pages allows you to customise sections, add media, and expand outlines intentionally. This hands-on experiment demonstrates how the platform differs from standard question-answer AI interactions.

While the generated content is comprehensive and well-structured, it tends to provide balanced, mainstream views. STORM offers potential for collaborative writing and knowledge curation in education and research.

Most papers should be blog posts
“Most books should be papers, most papers should be blog posts, most blog posts should be tweets, and most tweets should be answers given in long-form interviews.” Robert Wiblin (2021)

Claude, help me draft the outline of my academic paper
My last 2 posts have dealt with 1) the use of Claude to complete a peer review, and 2) how journals could include this process in their workflow. It follows that authors should be using LLMs as well. There are the obvious use cases; rephrasing passages, summarising, expanding, correcting, and so on. However, I think…

Claude, you are an expert peer-reviewer…
I recently completed a peer review for an academic journal, and as I was submitting it I wondered how Claude would perform if given the task. Since the article was anonymised, I didn’t think there’d be any problems uploading the PDF and asking Claude to review it. And, I had already submitted my review so…

Article: Predatory journals: No definition, no defense.

This would provide a reference point for research into their prevalence and influence, and would help in crafting coherent interventions. Grudniewicz, A. (2019). Predatory journals: no definition, no defence. Nature, 576,…

Article published – An introduction to machine learning for clinicians
It’s a nice coincidence that my article on machine learning for clinicians has been published at around the same time that my poster on a similar topic was presented at WCPT. I’m quite happy with this paper and think it offers a useful overview of the topic of machine learning that is specific to clinical…

What does scholarship sound like?
in this post I’ve tried to describe why podcasts are potentially a useful format for creating and sharing the production of new knowledge, presented a framework for determining if a podcast could be considered to be scholarly, and described the workflow and some practical implications of an accreditation process using a traditional journal.

Results of the first round of my Delphi study
I’m away on a 3 day writing retreat where I’m trying to put together a full draft of the Delphi study that I’m busy wrapping up. I thought I’d take a break from writing and do something different (from writing, I mean). I took the full text of the open-ended responses from the first round…

First article published
I just had my first research article published. It’s based mainly on the literature review I did for my Masters degree last year, with a few updates. It’s strange, but when I submitted it about 6 months ago, I thought it was a reasonable piece of work. Reading it now, I feel like taking it…
